    Actually I really enjoyed this reading. I can't wait to get my copy of HPTuners now.

    Good work man. Really good.

      kinda techy... is there anywhere i can go to find a good "tuning for dummies" startup? the numbers sound consistant and i guess a good flat 3-D graph looks nice but the numbers make no sense to me... i have no clue what each set of numbers is telling me.

      oh yeah, can u use this info to diagnose engine problems?

            Your writeup says we definately need a wideband setup to tune correctly, so where can we get the wideband O2 sensors without the gauge, b/c those are $400ish. Also, do the wideband o2 sensors just plug into the stock harnesses and work with our stock PCM, then we can tune via the HPTuners?

                          Hi there!

                          Great forum!Actually I'm in York, England and just bought a really smart Camaro from Japan, she's a 3.4 Auto but has it got tuning potential?

                          Fuel is so expensive this side of the atlantic so 5.7 V8 was out of the question!I'm really out of touch over here so any advice and tips would be greatly appreciated!

                          Kind Regards
